When I first started watching hunts on you tube, Stourac put out some great sheep and caribou films as a guide for Arctic Red or Widrig Outfitters I believe?

I'm jealous of you guys for the quality of the gear and the awesome place to hunt. One concern, though. Looks like there's traffic driving by in the distance at 3:37-3:29. I'm hoping those vehicles are farther away than they appear in the video. Not cool taking a shot on a rocky beach towards people. A ricochet or blown shot could be a tragedy for everyone . Got to know what's behind your target.

I thought the same thing at first. But it is just birds flying

@@dangol2789 I better contact Leupold and see if they make prescription optics. Cheers!

Looks like a fun hunting trip. Love the Land Rover too! How does coastal black bear meat taste in comparison to black bear in the west?

[@konagolden4209]

It's a little fishier....

Unfortunately Grizzly hunting in BC has been banned since 2017.
